Note Link by DCS0 vs Islet Journal

Record voice and text notes, import audio, photos and documents, extract text, and search your library on iPhone, iPad and Mac. Export or back up your notes and optionally sync your library with iCloud. Local note-taking and search work without a NoteLink account. Apple handles supported on-device transcription and processing. For Czech and other supported languages, optional cloud transcription and analysis use NoteLink's Firebase/Google Cloud backend and Google Vertex AI Gemini after sign-in and informed permission. Cloud transcription runs after recording; live captions depend on Apple's supported languages. Cloud transcription and analysis require internet access and available credits. New accounts receive 100 credits once. Existing accounts retain their balance. This version offers no credit purchases or automatic refill. Cloud permission also enables background note and attachment replication and optional sharing; you can withdraw it in Settings. Export your backend data or request cloud-account deletion in Settings. Account deletion preserves local notes and your iCloud library. Read the privacy policy for data recipients, storage, diagnostics and retention.
